Wobbler / Tiny Tykes
Our Wobbler and
Tiny Tyke classes are divided into small groups of children,
ages
two to three. Our teachers encourage your child's
self-esteem by offering experiences that challenge, and do not
overwhelm or frustrate.
To meet the
expectations of our curriculum, the
children are encouraged to share. Through games, puzzles, and songs, language is presented in an
exciting way that is stimulating, fun and involving. Group
activities promote a willingness to listen and pay attention, to
focus on a task and complete it.
Small motor skills are developed
through the use of materials including arts and crafts, puzzles,
Legos, and other manipulatives.
Children learn
readiness skills through playing in
our learning centers.
The
Land of the Letter People curriculum begins these small
students on the road to reading by making letters and the sounds
they represent accessible. Similarly, as they play with a variety of math-related
materials, they can learn to classify, compare, and measure. Math and number
concepts are reinforced at circle time through the use of calendar,
weather, songs, finger plays and games.
The proper mix of
playthings can spark imaginations, boost coordination, challenge
critical thinking skills and create long-lasting memories.
Numbers are more
meaningful when they correspond to concrete materials and everyday
items.

Our
computer program begins in these classrooms, identifying your child's specific learning
needs, and offers instruction where it is most needed to encourage
independent playing and learning.
Guidelines are
established to encourage appropriate behavior. As skills develop, a
positive attitude prevails.
Active play in
our gym and music programs
promotes large motor skill development.
Toilet training is accomplished in
a spirit of cooperation and enthusiasm as children reach this
milestone in their development. The family and caregiver should
agree upon an approach for helping the older child learn this new
aspect of self-control.
Our caregivers
are true partners with you in your child's healthy development.
